Cleaning the house

What now?

Hmm. Bedsheets every 2-3 weeks. Dusting, bathroom/kitchen (ie mopping + sinks) once a week. And hoover about every 3 days now we have a dog leaving clumps of hair all over the place.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

I'm living alone now so I guess I can update this. Since the flat's pretty small it's no trouble to clean it once a week. Dusting, hoovering, scrubbing the kitchen/bathroom floors, cleaning sinks/shower/loo, getting rid of all the shit that accumulates on my table over the course of the week. Has to be pristine; I'm very particular about the cleanliness of the place I live, which is why even though I appreciate it when people offer to do the dishes for me, I refuse. Dishwashing happens every day after my evening meal because I only have two saucepans and I tend to use them every day. I try and stretch out my laundry day to fortnightly (wear anything that's not grubby twice and bought a shitton more underwear) because we get free washer/dryer tokens every two weeks. My bedcovers get changed every time I do the laundry.

My boyfriend is so messy though; his best mate finds it hilarious that we're polar opposites in terms of cleanliness. I don't find it that amusing. He tries his best to be tidy when he's here, bless him, but it's almost as if he's fighting his very nature to do it, and I usually clean the day he leaves.

There's nowhere I can't reach.
